Abstract
A 30-day-old Holstein male calf suddenly became restless and showed signs of acute abdominal pain, such as repeatedly lying down and getting up and kicking its abdomen while standing. Decreased fecal output, progressive abdominal distension and splashing sounds in the abdomen on shaking were also recorded. Hematology tests showed an extremely elevated white blood cell count. Radiography of the abdomen showed gas-filled loops of the small intestine all over the abdominal cavity. Exploratory laparotomy through a right paralumbar incision also revealed gas-filled loops of the small intestine filling up the abdominal cavity. A 180° anti-clockwise torsion of the mesenteric root was palpated, and this was corrected through manual manipu-lation. The calf recovered rapidly after the surgery.
